Abstract
A media utilization administering device reads a medium ID saved in a memory card, obtains last update time information indicating the respective times during a data transfer at specified time intervals, and stores state information including the medium ID and the last update time information in a utilization administration memory. The media utilization administering device also stores the last update time information as the state information in the memory card. A transfer resumption judging device compares the medium IDs and the last update time information included in the state information and saved in both the memory card attached and the utilization administration memory when the data transfer was started. If the state information held by both agree as a result of the comparison, a transfer resumption controlling device causes a data transfer processing device to resume the data transfer from a position on the data indicated by the last update time information.
